Salutis Meae: A College Romance Kindle Edition

I always thought that I would never see past the age of nineteen.

Growing up the way I did, that was normal. It was normal for parents to plan their kids' funerals.

But I was able to get out of that life and create a better one for my family and myself. Even if I was still being seen as a lowlife.

Most people saw the tattoos and the clothes and would steer away, most people except her.

Savannah Campbell. The cheerleader. The rich girl who had no business getting involved with the boy from the bad side of town, but she didn’t care. I hated her until I didn't and in a short period of time she became my everything. Including my salvation.

We were happy.

That is until everything I feared came knocking and brought everything down.

Now I have to ask, if I was able to live past the age of nineteen…

Am I going to live past tonight?

This was a super sweet love story between two people from opposite worlds. Savannah is from a rich family but with a lot of stressful expectations and rules placed on her and Lucas is a single dad and ex gang member. This books has so much sweetness with a bit of suspense and shock. It was a beautiful love story!

I've said it before and I say it again... Jocelyne Soto never disappoints!

She's one of those authors who I know every time I pick one of her books I'm instantly going to get addicted to the story and I'm going to savor every single word. Salutis Meae wasn't the exception. I loved every single thing about it and my heart is so satisfied!

Lucas and Savannah were everything! From the moment I read the premise I knew I was going to love the story: I mean, a cholo and a cheerleader? Aaaaaahhh... my heart!!!! It was the perfect love story with all the Lady and the Tramp vibes that I didn't know I needed! Not only these two were hot as hell but they were also sweet AF! I am still so high on them I don't even know where to start!

First, Lucas... OMG that man! Alpha-roll is the best way to describe him. His protective and bad boy vibe made me fan myself so many times... I'm telling you, from the very first moment he laid eyes on Savannah, I felt my ovaries melt!!!! He was such a flirt and cocky outside of his little circle but once he was alone with Savannah or with his family, he was the sweetest, most caring man ever. A true good man at heart and the best father. My heart hurt for him and his past and I loved how he genuinely wanted to build a better future for him and his family. I also loved the matured co-parenting relationship he had with Celeste. Him with little Mia? Swooning for hours!

Savannah was such a badass. I hated what she had to go through and how much she felt like she needed to sacrifice herself to please others. I loved how real she was and how much I was able to feel and see things the way she did. Every time she was mad, sad I was. Every time she swooned, I did. I loved how quickly she understood and was able to empathize with Luca's situation and how she welcomed Mia into her life. They were just the perfect little family and I couldn't stop smiling any time they were all together.

Both of them were "don't judge a book by its cover" personified and I loved how little by little they discovered how much they had in common and how perfect they were together even when their lives were so different. I really loved the relationship they formed and how they learned to communicate with each other and understand where the other person was coming from. It was the sweetest thing to read and also the hottest... these two, really get to it and it was pure fire!

"The rich blonde girl was never supposed to fall for the brown boy from the bad side of town." He says, leaning into my touch.

"Well too bad, it happened. I love you Lucas Reyes, with every single thing that I have."

Aaahhh my heart is so full and I can't wait for this paperback to join the rest of Jocelyne's books in my shelf.

I would like to preface this review by saying that this my first Jocelyne Soto book and i really enjoyed the overall plot. I really liked Lucas character, he was such an amazing guy and he just genuinely loved the people in his life. He was also willing to put himself in harmful situations in order to know that he was making the right decision for the people he loved. I liked Savannah and thought she was a good character it was really good to see her growth and really flourish in to a strong woman who fought for those she loved and fought for herself and what she wanted. I enjoyed Mia, Celeste and Sandra as characters too. I couldn’t give this book a higher star rating because there was quite a few spelling/sentence mistakes that unfortunately did detract me from the story. I also felt there was some things that probably could’ve used more answers to at the end of the book. Overall this was a good book with a good plot line and good characters.

“Salutis Meae...It’s Latin for my salvation...”

Lucas and Savannah have really become one of my favorite couples so far in 2023. It’s a story I’ve thought about a lot over the years and have lived it myself in a lot of ways. Reading a book by a Hispanic author like myself really hits home because it feels like the stories are even more relatable that way. Take Lucas for example. Lucas is my father, my brother, my primo, and in some ways, even a reflection of myself. Savannah is the embodiment of a culture that we long so much to be accepted by, embraced into, but often not good enough to be a part of.

Lucas is a self-described former cholo. He loves to work on cars - especially custom cars – painting murals on their hoods. But he’s also worked extra hard to put himself back into college to provide for his mama and his baby girl, Mia. He wants to give them a better life, a life that was almost destroyed when they lost his father.

Savannah is the stereotypical white girl – cheerleader, wealthy daddy, slimebag boyfriend. But she’s not content with that life. She doesn’t need nor want her daddy’s money and she can’t stand the boyfriend he’s pushing her to be with.

The day a cholo walks into their college classroom is the day their lives change, for better or for worse.

Ms. Soto delivered in so many ways. It was an inner-city contemporary romance with a touch of suspense and a barrio feel. She gives Lucas and Savannah an insightful approach that makes every reader understand their differences and what’s at stake. They also both grow in their characters, are not afraid to change, and embrace their differences thanks to the love they find with each other.

I’d highly recommend this book and can’t wait to read more from this author. 💖

Ayy! This book!! Omg! I loved it so much!
I truly loved the opposites attract!
I enjoyed this single dad trope! Lucas love for his daughter and all he does for her omg! Melted my heart!
The main character in here Lucas was such a cinnamon roll and I legit didn’t see that coming and I loved it so so much. Their relationship is so dang beautiful! Legit goals!!
Gotta say I cried 3 times!! THREE TIMES!
It was emotional!

I’m always going to be a sucker for the inner dialogue, when you see as you’re reading that they have feelings or attractions!
It was spicy at times and it was delicious!
From begging to end I was hooked with this story. I fell I love with so many characters in this. The way savannah falls in love with Mia (Lucas daughter) ahh that made me so happy.
Also bonus baby mama (Celeste) Ayy I love her 😍
She gave off the best bi energy 😘

Over all this was such a good read! ❤️

4.0 out of 5 stars it’s so sweet
Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2023

This one was definitely one of the sweeter stores for Jocelyn. It does have its moments of getting intense and dramatic but the relationship between Lucas and Savannah is definitely a good, healthy, sweet one. They lean on each other and learn from each other and put in the work to keep their communication open and honest, they have their bumps but they work through them together.

The only thing really would be that it maybe needed another round of edits just to get the last bits of typos, but it doesn’t affect the story itself so it’s just details at that point
